CPU/NB Current Capability 100% | Asus F2A85-M manual

Configuration options: [100%] [110%] [120%] [130%]

CPU/NB Current Capability [100%]

This item provides wider total power range for overclocking. A higher value brings a wider total power range and extends the overclocking frequency range simultaneously. Configuration options: [100%] [110%] [120%] [130%]

CPU Power Phase Control [Standard]

Phase number is the number of working VRM phase. Increasing phase number under heavy system loading to get more transient and better thermal performance. Reducing phase number under light system loading to increase VRM efficiency.

[Standard]	Proceeds phase control depending on the CPU loading.
[Optimized]	Loads the ASUS optimized phase tuning profile.
[Extreme]	Proceeds the full phase mode.

[Manual Adjustment] Adjustment]Allows manual adjustment.

DO NOT remove the thermal module when switching to Extreme and Manual Mode. The thermal conditions should be monitored.

CPU Voltage Frequency [300Khz]

Allows you to set the CPU Voltage Frequency. The values range from 200Khz to 350Khz with a 50Khz interval.

CPU Power Duty Control [T.Probe]

DIGI + VRM Duty control adjusts the current and thermal conditions of every component’s phase. Configuration options:

[T. Probe]	Select to maintain the VRM thermal balance.
[Extreme]	Select to maintain the VRM current balance.

	DO NOT remove the thermal module while changing the DIGI+VRM related parameters.
	The thermal conditions should be monitored.
